Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP is an international law firm founded in San Francisco, California. It is focused on serving companies in the technology, energy & infrastructure and financial sectors globally.

History

Orrick acquired 40 lawyers and their litigation practices from Donovan, Leisure, Newton & Irvine in 1998.[2]

In 2003, the firm added a team from the Venture Law Group (VLG).[3] In 2005 at the expense of the now-defunct law firm Coudert Brothers Orrick expanded its London office and opened offices in Hong Kong, Beijing and Shanghai with Coudert Brothers professionals.[4]

In 2006, the firm engaged in merger negotiations with legacy Wall Street firm Dewey Ballantine;[5] the merger was unsuccessful.[6] The same year, Orrick expanded its Paris office through a combination with Rambaud Martel, a M&A and dispute resolution firm in France.[7]

In 2008, Orrick expanded into Germany by combining with Hölters & Elsing (Partnerschaft von Rechtsanwälten);[8] today, the firm has offices in Düsseldorf and Munich.

Also in 2008, the firm admitted almost two dozen partners in its London, New York, San Francisco, Seattle, and Washington, D.C., offices from the San Francisco firm Heller Ehrman, including 27 hired[9] after Heller's Sept. 26, 2008, announcement of dissolution.

On November, 2008 Orrick laid off 40 associates and 35 staffers in various offices, predominately in the US, and said that because of the economy and the firm's recent capital investments, profits per partner would be down that year.[10]

In June 2017, Orrick was announced as one of thirty law firms piloting the Mansfield Rule. Modeled after the NFL's Rooney Rule and named for Arabella Mansfield, the first woman admitted to practice in the US.[11]
